PREFACE The traditional Tibetan medical system is composed of vast indigenous healing knowledge and practices, and offers holistic treatment aimed at regulating and maintaining the balance of the functional principles of the mind and body. These principles are related to the characteristics of the elemental cosmic energies and as such, it is understood that any disturbances in the environment can directly or indirectly affect the health of a person. The long history it enjoys, the sound foundations on which it is established, and the increasing popularity it has earned are clear indications that Tibetan Medicine is relevant and important even in the modern world. This valuable medical treasure is found in the highly esteemed Gyueshhi (Four Tantras), a complete and profound multi-faceted text, encompassing the unabridged theories and practices of Tibetan Medicine. It is the creation of eminent ancient scholars of Tibet and was achieved by practice, invention, and development through their intellectual wisdom. Based on practical experience with the ancient medical knowledge of the Tibetans, which relates to their unique culture, customs, and environment, the legendary Yuthok Yonten Gonpo, Father of Tibetan Medicine, composed the Gyueshhi by incorporating the essence of the then known Asian medical systems, such as Ayurvedic, Chinese, and Greek medicine, making it one of the oldest, most comprehensive and reliable medical systems in the world. Tibetan Medicine offers a complete system of diagnostic and treatment methods based on an enormous herbal pharmacopoeia produced by complex and systematic manufacturing processes. The essential principles of Tibetan Medicine are harmony and balance, which lends it an inspiring relevance to the health problems of the modern world, including the prevention of various psychosomatic disorders. The teaching and practice of Tibetan Medicine is mainly concentrated in Tibet; however, the entire belt of the Himalayan region, India, Mongolia, Kalmykia, and Buryatia, as well as a few Western countries also share in the practice of Tibetan Medicine. Due to the growing popularity of Tibetan Medicine worldwide, the increasing number of people interested in this discipline, and in line with the enduring wishes of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, the time has come to pass on this precise knowledge and instruction. Our goal is to share Tibetan medical knowledge and its practices by making it available particularly to non-Tibetans, and for it to be widely used by English-speaking medical practitioners, scientists, and researchers who have a commitment to providing quality health care to all human beings. Hence, overcoming the narrow attitudes of seclusion and secrecy, Men-Tsee-Khang started a translation project to make an authentic interpretation of the original Tibetan medical knowledge available to interested people everywhere, so that new thoughts and methods can be introduced into daily practice and provide greater benefits for the peoples of the world.
